Singh’s father Pradeep says the family is pleased with the investigating team's efforts.

"Well, I cannot get my son back, but I would really want the court or the higher authorities to monitor this case and justice must be served, as quickly as detectives have cracked this case," said Pradeep.

"I must commend the team that worked on this case. They were very professional, and they did their work very well."
